Ralph and Ray Show Meet Farmers in Regina.

[SASKFARMER3]

Sounds like a new comedy coming out this fall and God help us that it doesn't come true.
Yesterday in Regina Ralph Goodale (Same as NDP) and Bob Ray (NDP Looser)were in Regina meeting with Farmers to discuss agriculture and at their press conference they Said how their would fight for the CWB for Farmers. They Also talked about how the US and Europe support Rural Areas with the creation of Ethanol and Bio Diesel.
This part was interesting but for 13 years where was Ralph and his Liberals They gave us lots of lip service and CASIP AIDA etc.
Basically it was a love in of liberal farmers (they found 10 or so).

Do you think maybe you meant to call Bob Rae a

loser

Very different from looser!

[winwin]

Sounds like the liberals are determined to fight with the ndp over at most 38% of the farm vote who are obsessed with central govt control over grain.
Is that smart politics?

Seems to me i'd want to be siding with the 62%.

If I were a politician.

[kamichel]

I also had that in mind also , but that would involve having to change policy. Flipping policy could be worse than shooting for 38 percent of the vote. Better the Liberals and NDP don't have an election for a long time.

Manitoba politicians who were unequivocal about avoluntary cwb did real well.For eg.in Russel len Derkatch smoked Red Bill nicholson's wife by a big margin.(Reminding us all once again that the CWB is an NDP/Liberal monolith)
Meanwhile,the NDP-lite leadership accomplished nothing.
Manitoba's P.c's need a Conservative.

I don't post on the commodity forum often, as the commodity I currently produce is not grain, but I can't see how we can maintain the CWB as it stands today (until Aug 1) and negotiate any kind of a significant trade deal within DOHA. Are we not better to change the system to our advantage in advance, than have the WTO force us to change it anyway?
I think if we aren't serious about trade, then MB and SK will have to eat a lot of bread.

WINIWIN, you said:

"Manitoba politicians who were unequivocal about avoluntary cwb did real well.For eg.in Russel len Derkatch smoked Red Bill Nicholson's wife by a big margin.(Reminding us all once again that the CWB is an NDP/Liberal monolith)
Meanwhile,the NDP-lite leadership accomplished nothing.

Just because Bill Nicholson's wife ran for the Manitoba Liberals, you assume Bill is also a provincial liberal supporter? why do you assume that?

Don't our wives have the right to their own opionions? Perhaps Bill his a Manitoba PC supporter? Why do you assume his wife shares Bill's political colours ?

Perhaps I can assume you are a caveman with caveman intellect?

If I were to look in the dictonary, I would see your picture under the word

"Misogynist".


Could I also assume that Frisco probably has more respect for his pigs than you have for women and their ability to exist as free individuals?

I sure wouldn't want to ask your views on visual minorities, yikes!

Benny...

That was quite a performance... what bee got stuck in your underware!?

It takes one to know one?

[BennyHin]

Tom: so you dont take this seriously either?

What is your wife's opinion?


God Bless Tom.

[Fransisco]

Benny, Terri Nicholson who is the wife of a rabid single desk director ran as a candidate for the provincial NDP party not the Liberals.

Aside from the usual husband wife differences that do happen, do you really think that the Manitoba provincial NDP party is pro choice when it comes to the CWB? Do you actually believe that any of their NDP candidates are pro choice? Do you really think that anyone else believes that?

Don't you ever get tired of embarrassing yourself this way?

Dear Benny,

Benny... you turn out to be the classic person who is "Intolerant"!

CWB " Detractors" (Market Choice supporters) are "Tolerant"... They1) permit or allow (2) a conduct or point of view they disagree with (3) while respecting the person in the process.

"Single Desk" supporters... are by their very nature... the "intolerant" people. You say: Market your grain our way (through the CWB "Single Desk")... or we will throw you in jail...

My better half read this to me this morning... We had a good chuckle out of your above statements after we read this, Benny!


""The Intolerance of Tolerance"...one of America's noblest virtues has been so distorted it's become a vice.

There's one word that can stop you in your tracks. That word is "intolerant."

...the modern notion of tolerance is seriously misguided.

...Classic tolerance requires that every person be treated courteously with the freedom to express his ideas without fear of reprisal no matter what the view, not that all views have equal worth, merit, or truth.
Classical tolerance involves three elements: (1) permitting or allowing (2) a conduct or point of view one disagrees with (3) while respecting the person in the process. To argue that some views are false, immoral, or just plain silly does not violate any meaningful definition or standard of tolerance.

This essential element of classical tolerance-disagreement (elitism regarding ideas)-has been completely lost in the modern distortion of the concept. Nowadays if you think someone is wrong, you're called intolerant no matter how you treat him.

Most of what passes for tolerance today is nothing more than intellectual cowardice, a fear of intelligent engagement."

God Bless Benny!
